“A California DA says the single mother of six facing prosecution for selling 32 ounces of homemade ceviche is ‘making more of this than it is.’ Mariza Ruelas, 37, made headlines Monday when she claimed to be facing a year in jail for a Facebook-based hobby. Ruelas and five others were busted when San Joaquin County investigators posed as members of the suspects’ Facebook group, where they traded recipes and sometimes sold dishes to each other. One undercover investigator asked to buy some of Ruelas’ homemade ceviche, and she was promptly charged with operating a food facility and business without a license.”
